an essential part of the german techno scene for more than fifteen years now, johannes heil is now in better shape than ever. with his eighth studio album >loving<, heil draws both a modern and traditional balance of his life from and for the music, and thus sets one of the undisputed musical highlights this year.

to share and to increase the love, to let the soul speak through the music, is a feeling which can hardly be described with words. with ôloving , i want to embrace the whole world, because this journey to the origins of electronic dance music in between modern detroit, high tech soul and house is coming from the very bottom of my heart.ö (johannes heil, 2010)

you dont really have to introduce johannes heil, do you? for more than 15 years, he is an inherent part of the german techno scene and with classics from the likes of >paranoid dancer< (kanzleramt, 1998) or >calling< (1999), he belongs to the long-term memory of techno.

great groovin remixes by basti grub and zielgruppe

over the last two years, ahmet sisman has become one of the most interesting newcomers within the german techno scene. his music is located at the junction between turkish roots and western post-modernism, but still always succeeds in orchestrating the dark energy of the night, too.

mutual musik was founded by the musician johannes beck and the graphic designer fine heininger – also known as the djane fine musique. with mutual musik they create a platform for their very own perspective on current club music. inspired by different musical styles, they realize their most personal passions and visions and impress the audience with such listening experiences. the focus of attention is the interaction, each of the people taking part have their specific capabilities and are enriching the existing order. shared ideas are interwoven to create new sound compositions.

well ok, no rule without exception... this beautiful joint from johannes albert is a little web 2.0 fairy-tail: the white rookie & cratedigga no. 1 moomin found a youtube clip of a dj hammering a super-deep, rough piano track in a club in the german city of paderborn. he didnt know the track, so he sent the dj a mail asking and a few mails later, the tracks from johannes were blowing away mr. offermanns ears. so the labelhead decided to make this the next white. of course first of all johannes & oskar had to meet a few times to make sure they understand each others vision well and after a few meetings they eventually became friends. so the labels movement towards the direction of house is continued by this release. wooden pearls is pure housemusic to the core. very wooden & grounded in the lower spectrum and crystal clear up in the sky. these very honest and timeless tracks tell us a story. the story of johannes alberts passion for house. since he was 15 years old, he is a fan. from the german franconia he follows house throu his local recordstore >swing king<

do easy records is back to present the first ep from co-labelowner and viennese house monster johannes lehner. after his recent releases on drumpoet community or brise records, johannes now shows his unique vison of deep and analog house music on his own imprint. johannes traxs come along with remixes from long-term buddy patlac (one half of matthias meyer & patlac) and italien wizard mirco violi. played by matthias meyer, brohters vibe, anthony collins, quarion, chris tietjen and many more .....

support: adam beyer, alex bau, matt star, frank lorber, chris hope, heiko laux....... nachtstrom schallplatten wishes all music lovers a wonderful 2010 and therefor we are back with a special goodie for your ears: to start into the new year in an appropriate way, our newest remix-package will feature no one less than the legendary johannes heil and wj henze who did 2 brilliant mixes of tobias felbermayrs tracks taken from his last release on nachtstrom schallplatten (nst014).
while johannes builds up his track in his typical heil-stylish way, using lots of freaky and mind-expanding ingredients which are shaping and forming constantly throughout the song and culminating in a brilliant finale, wj henze delivers a puristic techno-stomper full of drive which is clearly made to make you shake.be prepared for a first musical highlight of the year and dont miss this brilliant piece of plastic!

johannes heil is back with a brand new single - sportive, more modern and dynamic than ever before.

even in these cold days danny howells keeps the summer vibe alive - for remix duties dig deeper hired german wunderkind johannes heil who is still causing a massive stir with his last release on shit happens.

as snapshots catalogue grows, so too does the quality. the modest label hits us with five new tracks by johannes volk with a heavy detroit minimal feel, instantly reminding us of vintage robert hood productions built of only the bare essential elements required to move ones body. johannes is currently pounding the floors across europe with his live sets and has released on labels such as jeff mills 6277 imprint (an axis sub label) & gerds life world records.

after their last production faith christian pass and johannes team up again for sungod to continue their creative work. on the flip side johannes heil is celebrating life with his track true love. what else needs to be said!? supported by heiko mso, gregor tresher: excellent start for johannes heils new labeb!, toni rios, frank lorber. the same way volcanoes have eruptions, dicks have erections and bloody rivers flow: shit happens naturally! even when im on the toilet, i will not use force to squeeze it out because i know it will flow out anyway. its a state of mind, a way to live and the best description of how the creative process and the decisions of this new playground will take place. we will let it flow and get rid of the shit before it happens! we are not willing to take control, but we love to let things grow naturally.we love music, to play and to live a free life of passion, friendship and harmony.you can expect everything besides a concept label with corporate people creating corporate music. because the concept is to have none, but the heart will release the tunes we really love. no matter which genre you might order them to, of course, we are focused on club music, but still there will be music fit in perfectly to a sunny day on which you are sitting on the balcony having a barbecue with friends and drinking a cool beverage. there also might be a tune you can get laid to for the first time in your life. we dont create images, we dont believe in heroes - but we believe in you and ourselves. the most important place for us is the soul - the spot where it all is happening. so let us start with our two favourite tracks for the summertime.

johannes lehner aka el gonzo is one of the most promising figuers in electronic music from austria right now, the vienna resident hosts his own night @ legendary flex club and is in charge for do easy records. he delivers three outstanding strong tech house tracks with the infectious smart one standing out with a wonderful quickly recognizable and incredibly pushing piano melody and kinky fat beats. one on one is the kind of percussive powerful funky looped tech-house most dj sets lack of nowadays whereas thai mansion shows pure deep house passion both classic and future, with a driving beat. early support from: ashley beedle, milton jackson, audiofly, thomas schumacher, anthony collins, chris lattner, mat tolfrey, stacey pullen

the first twelve from johannes volk gained support keith worthy, mike huckaby, mills, etc. on this second release johannes drops a mighty techno stomper called internal structure reminiscent of some classic robert hood productions from way back. inspired by a severe an damaging tornado storm in volk?s hometown, this incredibly good, yet frantic piece of dance music is build from layer upon layer: static beats, grooving bassline, sweeping synths and a warm rhodes-esque sound make this a apocalyptic but colourful banger. on the flip we have gerd bringing home the potatoes for sure. his take on volk?s internal structure is a mighty acid stomper reminiscent of those warehouse parties, yet it is done in a very contemporary way. check!
